I am keenly aware of the transformative effect good design can have on the quality of my client's lives. Our homes nurture us, and provide the ultimate environment to convey who we are and celebrate the unique story of our lives. I believe when your home reflects who you are, you experience a sense of peace and harmony. We are deeply and personally affected by color, pattern, and texture. When our homes are harmonious, so are our lives. My philosophy takes luxury design to a deeper level. Luxury is less about the 'things' that fill your home and more about the way those things make you feel. Inspiration comes to me from client's daily lives. I learn a lot about my client's personal style when they share and talk about their lives with me. I listen, watch and take it all in so that I can create homes where my clients say, "Wow...this is so me!"

My passion and talent for design has been honored by my peers with Platinum and Gold Awards for Bedroom Design, Bathroom Design and Special Spaces Design. My ability to transform spaces has led me to become the premier designer for two years running on the nationally televised TV series, Merge with Lisa Rinna. Still, for me, the most rewarding part of my job is seeing the sheer joy on my client's face when they truly love their newly designed home.

There are a number of ways a designer and a client can agree to work together. The most common method is a fixed fee. The fixed fee amount is determined after the designer has had an opportunity to meet with the client to fully understand the scope of the services needed. Hourly consulting is also available. Hourly consulting works well for "remodel only" projects. It also works well for clients who want to do thier own shopping but want a designer to review their choices to ensure that they don't make any mistakes.
